Seriously impressive for the money

If you're just getting into the hobby or just want to buy a really solid mechanical keyboard and not go down that rabbit hole, the Q series is where I point people. These keyboards rival low-mid custom keyboards. The Q series gets you the option for custom programming with QMK to learn to use layers and hot swap sockets to try out different switches. This is an amazing way to get into mechanical keyboards with a seriously solid keyboard (literally - it weighs 3.3lbs!) with the ability to customize. I'm very happy with this and I own several custom mechanical keyboards and the Q4 is still in the rotation.

Satisfied but a little frustrated

Overall I'm very happy with the Q4 keyboard's quality and feel, though trying to customize it with via has been a bit of a process since the Via software is no longer available for download since they moved to a chrome based website (not sure on the technical name, but now you go to a website instead of downloading a software) and the website does not support the Q4 even after flashing. If not for the software bit this keyboard would get a 5 star rating though.

Great keyboard

Incredible sound and feel. Zero complaints about the board, but the included cable is quite cheap, and the flat rate shipping is pretty steep.

I could not be happier

I got the Q4 for writing and I could not be happier with this keyboard. The build quality is superior to anything in my experience. Keychron hit it out of the park with this one.

This is the 2nd Keychron after the K2 & K8. I look forward to watching the development of your product line.

A Refined Piece Of Metal Art

The entire metal body is crafted with 6063 aluminum that is processed through CNC machined, polished, anodized, sandblasted, and undergoes 24 more manufacturing stages to make this solid metal piece of art that is the Q4.

All-Around Customizable Keyboard

To build a fully customizable keyboard, we designed every component easily assembled. Therefore, you can customize and adjust each component you want.

Double Gasket Design

The Double Gasket Design is a new innovative structure in the industry. In addition to the gaskets on the plates, we added silicone pads between the top and bottom cases to significantly reduce the sound resonance between the metals and reduce the noise of the impacted metals. This design allows the keyboard to maintain the flexibility of the gasket structure and improves the overall typing sound.

An Epic Core Inside The Keyboard

A brand new ultra-low-power MCU Arm structure that is powerful and armed with 128K Flash to provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is up to 1000 Hz out of the box, which makes latency non-existent for the competitive game.

OSA Profile Double-shot PBT Keycaps

For the new double-shot PBT keycaps, we built a new profile. It has a similar height to the OEM profile and has an SA-like shape. We named it the OSA (OEM spherical angled) keycap. The PBT keycaps will provide excellent oil resistance, enhance the type feel, and prevent the legends from fading out.

Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Keychron Q4 comes with a system toggle and an additional set of customized keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems. You can now save two different layouts on the keyboard, one for each system.

Hot-swappable.

The hot-swappable sockets are mounted on the PCB, so you can install or change the switches without soldering. The PCB supports both 3 pin and 5 pin MX mechanical switches.

South-facing RGB LED Lights.

The south-facing RGB LED is designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typist’s angle with the premium non-shine-through PBT keycaps installed. The south-facing RGB is also free from interference when the users install OEM or Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on the keyboard.

Note: The Q4's top case has sharper corners to make it much more compatible with third-party keycaps.

All New Screw-in PCB Stabilizers

The screw-in design increases stability and makes it easier for changes and upgrades. Precise craftsmanship makes the stabilizers more stable and less shaky.
